In episode 49 I had the absolute pleasure to learn from Spencer Nugent.

Spencer is well known in the Industrial Design community for his tremendous community content and sketching tutorials with his blog Sketch-A-Day. In the past, he worked at ASTRO Studios, Vivint Smart Home, and others. Currently, he is also an educator at Offsite, an education platform by Advanced Design.

With Spencer we dive into:

The importance of visualization for the design process

how to stay motivated in creating community content

How to drive business impact as a designer through visualization

how sketching and dodging helps to align within a design process and helps you to “prototype” ideas

the importance of visual thinking

Diversity in design: what designers should do to tangle problems around inclusion and diversity

Why it is critical to developing more diverse role models in the design community
